how do you manage to reseller hosting when there's so much competition out there..?
Based in my experience,forum ads and social media are a good way to focus when it comes to selling online.

You mostly need to build value into what you are selling. Most anyone can go online and start a web hosting company because it has become so easy to do so with the cost of servers having gone down in price and other options available to us.

I'm not the cheapest out there, but neither am I the most expensive. I mainly base my plans on the amount of space I have on my servers in comparison to how I can divide that into "apartments" for clients. I base it on what I know on average each website typically uses in space. Much like an apartment building, you know how many apartments you can put into your building depending on the size of the apartments.
